If you want a shot at the live show, post your pictures to that thread: "Share Your Pictures for the LIVE SHOW" or something like that.
Also, weather permitting if your bird is completed, take some snapshots outside in a setting that enhances the airframe.
That helps get a favorable response from the powers that be.
Best and good luck, LBI solemnly swear to "over-celebrate" the smallest of victories.~Lucky B*st*rd~

90mm CG and I fly on 9s (6s + 3s 5000 packs). I'm using Freewing's V2 8s motor (1350kv) with the Spektrum 120a 6-12s ESC. I think I'll get a couple LiHv (4.36v) packs from SMC and fly it on a true 8s setup. The standard 8s setup at 4.20v is better than a 6s, but it's just ok for me. The extra cell from the 9s gives me a similar flight time, with much better performance out of the 1350kv motor. Give it a shot if you're feeling crazy and wanting to push your 18 over 135mph.

I also flew it with two SMC 4s 6200mah LiHv batteries… AMAZING!! SMC batteries are the new GOAT in the battery industry. The 4.36v charge instead of the standard 4.20v is game changing. It’s like turning a 6s or 8s power system into a 7s or 9s setup without updating the ESC.

Here is the revised design. Btw, the rectangular plates between some of the outer bolts appear to be not standard. I've looked at some pics and there are none of these.
HUD parts are prepared as well.
@ Steve (RCjetdude): I assume you will be getting your hands on your F-18 sooner than me (ETA late June over here). Would you volunteer as tester for the hub caps?
Does anyone know where to get (also buy if necessary) the main wheel covers for the F/A-18?
thank you
